Ok this blog is getting dead...
The new volunteers had written a paragraph on the orientation.. Althou not all submit their paragraph.. -.- This was wat they wrote...
We went sentosa for our orientation. It was an interesting experience, getting to know more about what we would be doing in the block d. We played some LAME games and built a sand castle with which we deserved to win!!! Finally came the BBQ at that ulu Labrador Park. It was nice to meet my fellow block d mates and i cant wait to get started.

Hey guys! The orientation camp was cool; it was great for me to meet with the other members of WSC. The food was good too. I had real fun and I look forward to go to the boys’ home.

The orientation at sentosa on saturday came out much more interesting than i thought. Initially still hesitating whether should i attend but after going through it, feel that it was quite an enjoyable session. Throughout the whole orientation can see that all the existing volunteers and seniors really put in their efforts to organise this event to let us new volunteers to get to know one another better. Although it was not say the best orientation that i have attended, but it really gives me a break out of the hectic web assignments and really appreciate the efforts that all the seniors have put in to organise this session.

Although it was a Saturday spent at Sentosa and Vivocity, it was a great way to spend the Saturday with like-minded people. It was a great way to spend a morning by breaking the ice and making new friends. I was quite amazed by the volunteers that signed up for Youth; everyone just came with an open mind! Not only that, I was actually expecting freshies to be the main bulk of the new volunteers but apparently there are a significant number of seniors who came in as new volunteers as well. The games were simple such as sandcastle making competition which I believe we should have won and treasure hunting was just amazing when the group kind of got separated but we hunt for each other and met up back again somehow! It just goes to show block D peeps have telepathy to find each other at the end of the day! The day ended off with a nice BBQ in which the food was great and there was plenty to eat! Overall, it really spurs us up for the upcoming challenge as a volunteer for the boys' home block D! =)

Building sand castle was fantastic! Group number sort of multiplied when we combined with Blk B. Uber fun under the sun !!! Free scrub for our feet and our hands too ! what more can we ask for? Hahahaha. Perspired as one to work on our masterpiece. Smelly, then smelly together! The castle was such a pride and joy ! Glad that we got 2nd place in the end after the "ang moh" judged. I bet he was amazed at our enthusiasm :D
